Hi from yet another new member

Postby JohnChambers » Tue Sep 01, 2009 6:23 pm

Hello all. Been playing for 40+ years, mostly a nice Gretsch 6120 and several basses. No Mosrites yet, but have always been a big Ventures fan and always wanted one. Didn't realize new ones and clones like the Hallmarks were being made these days, but happened on this forum, and now there's no going back!

Welcome, John, from another Newbie, but please listen: If you want to keep your bank account in the black, get away from this forum at once, while you still can.

That Swine Flu in the news is NOTHING compared to Mosrite (or Hallmark) Fever, and these Forum folks are WAY contagious.

You been warned--

Welcome John. This is a great place for anything Mosrite with a good bit of Hallmark as well. I also have some Gretsch guitars. 6122-58 and 6122-59. The models may give away my favorite guitar player. Chet, Nokie and Duane in that order. There are many others that I like also but those 3 were what made me pick up a guitar back in the day. (1964)

Hey welcome to a great forum. I am also a Gretsch player and I love my Annie, but my Celebrity is still the #1 go to guitar for me! I can assure you, once you've played one you will own one. So, surrender now and just get it over with. Oh, and when you do, please post pictures!! :mrgreen:

Hey John, welcome to the forum. I guess you can tell by my avatar that I'm a Ventures fan also... ;)

Welcome aboard. If you read all the posts here, you'll be as versed in Mosrite as anyone you know. (Except a few you'll meet here.) ;)
